Vinyl Car Wraps are not to be overlooked and might lend themselves well to Marks style of driving. The OneLap Camaro has done wraps hasn't it? Were there issues with adhesion there?

Doing a Carbon Fiber "look" base with graphics over could be a cool look on a '69, but it is an "import" trend:( .

Mark has never been shy about painting over CF parts before so I won't hold my breath about leaving them nekkid just to show off that he has CF on his car.

I would propose something in a nostalgic graphic/stripe theme... maybe a homage to Baldwin Motion or Yenko 427 Supercars is due since Mark is using the Thomson 427SC motors now? These cars are proving to win not just Supercar but "Ultimate Streetcar" status... :bow:
:D

I will echo all the comments of appreciation for the information flow from this level of build. Sincerely, Thanks to all of you making such vast contributions of knowledge.

What are you guys trying to do, put me out of buisness!?? Lol I agree somewhat with the wrap. Mark drives his cars like rentals. Which is cool. I really enjoy seeing a all around quality built car out flogging it out on the track.
A wrap would be a lot better than this flat black nonsense! Lol:willy:
Whatever will be cool I'm looking forward to seeing what Murry will design. I'm sure it will be awesome.

I think you should just rough it up with a grinder and Rhino Line it! :P

In all seriousness. I am really looking forward to seeing this project unfold.

Careful what you wish for with an Engineer. That suggestion made me think of the aerodynamic advantages dimples bring to a golf ball... or the rough surface shark suits that broke records in Olympic swimming or coatings used in Americas' Cup.

I'm not even an engineer I just interact with them from time to time.;)

How good are the Dutch boys at "intentional denting to improve wind drag coefficient" techniques?:lol:

I'm not usually a white person..but in Marks case..and how hard he is on a nice new paint job lol. I think its a pretty good idea. I really like something like this Camaro. With the carbon strip exposed up the middle, front the header,hood and wiper panel.

Actually, a pearl white might be a better option. Mark could still have stripes as well, but in Carbon Fiber. Well, here is a link of Lamborghini in Pearl White and carbon fiber interior.

Going to chip regardless of the color.

Ha !!! I want to see Mark put Pearl on a car. Nothing looks better than a beat up Pearl paint job.

Just use a paint protection kit, like Xpel. No one notice it.
